Aprenda a jogar Canastra: Guia

Use two standard decks plus four jokers (108 cards). 4 players in partnerships. Deal 11 cards each. Place the deck face-down and turn one card up to start the discard pile.

Score points for melds (card values), canastas (300-500 each), and going out (100). Deduct points for cards left in hand. First to 5,000 points wins.

Draw: Take two cards from the stock, or take the entire discard pile if you can immediately meld its top card. Meld: Lay down sets of 3+ cards of the same rank. Wild cards (2s and jokers) can substitute but can't exceed the natural cards in a meld. To take the discard pile, you must have two natural cards of the top card's rank in your hand (or it's locked/frozen with special conditions).
